We Got The Whole 9

Seriously. He looks totally locked in and is crushing all types of pitches. What the horsefeathers.

You don't find it meaningful?

Better yet, how did we get so much worse this season

I'd like to kick Joe in the nuts

If I were Black, Gray would go 9 tonight

It didn't have a lot of loft to catch a jet stream

Any thoughts on Bauer's thinly veiled accusations that the Astros pitchers are cheating? Any reasonable explanation for some of their pitchers spikes in spin rate?

Interesting article. It says he believed he needed to slow down on the mound while in his 2nd start, but in the video Duke posted, he's basically beginning his windup as soon as the batter appears set. Either way I like what they said about his change up and it's development. Looks like a legit MORP at least.

I imagine his stuff held up well as he Kd the side in the 7th

Just need a a couple dongs and his line will explode

Well if the reports are true that they had no interest in Nelson, with his college coach on staff, then he probably wasn't the right guy, really. And I'm not sure it would be wise to ask a mid 30s injury prone G to play in a scheme he doesn't fit, even if it's just as a stopgap. That was the clear driving force of not picking up Sitton's option, IMO. To me, Pace gave Vic a franchise player, gave his new OL coach a franchise player, and then gave his new HC and Helfrich a possible franchise player. From there he added some high upside athletic players with pretty low floors. Though I do think Nichols is exciting, and Fitts is quite intriguing. His 3-cone is comparable to Landry's. so now there are reports they had no interest in Nelson? You can assume whoever gave you those reports is a liar. You're also stretching the concept of a franchise player extremely thin.I don't think I am. I'd be surprised if each of those 3 doesn't receive a 2nd contract from us. I think they have potential to be All-Pros.

Those could very well be the case. Either way I see the logic in letting Sitton walk.

62% K rate this year, JFC

Need to see more of those games where we score a [expletive]

horsefeathers yeah, horsefeathers off Nolan

Meh, that was a ball Cishek could've bounced to 2nd. Had loads of time.

Thank you Addy

Crappy ass throw Cishek

Yeah, Javy may need a day off.

Sitton doesn't really fit the ZBS, and Sims, if nothing else, provides a steady presence and mentor for Shaheen, and in a smaller respect, Burton, who will likely split out wide quite a bit. Not thrilled with Sims being kept with his tag but I think it makes some sense. If Burton or Shaheen get hurt they'd be in big trouble. If you can get Sitton for one more year and Meredith passed his physical, this cuts down the serious need to fill those two holes, I think you still look for Sitton's replacement if the right guy is there, like Nelson. I like the Daniels pick, but I was really hoping they would get Landry in the 2nd.

Good thing Rizzo still knows how to field

Jeez I thought he'd beat that out easily
